Bad Cop
Richard Jouppi
Jouppi is no longer a police officer with the Duluth Police Department after footage of him beating an intoxicated and uncooperative man in a wheel chair at a detox center. On top of his assault of the man, he threatened the staff member who was there to admit the man into the center. When the Reader talked to a former employee of the detox center it was revealed that it is not uncommon for officers to treat staff workers at the facility unprofessionally.
